To develop the ranking, South Central Construction mailed surveys to an exhaustive database of companies identified as potential top specialty contractors.

Sources used to create the database include McGraw-Hill Construction Dodge, various economic development agencies and construction associations, and back issues of Engineering News-Record and South Central Construction. Every effort was made to obtain accurate and complete company information, and the information was verified with contractors.

We would like to thank the companies, associations and individuals that assisted us in this effort. Without them, these rankings would not be possible.
